Q

26
Q

Sclerotome cells that migrate anterolateral become what?

A

27
Q

The myotome gives rise to what 5 things?

A
  • Epimere (deep muscles of the back)
  • Hypomere (skeletal muscles)
  • Muscles of the limbs
  • Tongue Muscles
  • Extraocular Muscles
28
Q

Where are pharyngeal arches located and what will they become?

A

They are located below the forming mouth and will become structures of the face

29
Q

Briefly describe limb formation

A

A region of the body wall (limb field) becomes a limb bud. This limb bud grows in proximal-distal order (i.e. shoulder first, manus last). The manus resembles a paddle in which digits emerge by an interdigital necrotic process later on.

30
Q

How do intersegmental vertebrae form?

A

Sclerotomal cells migrate from adjacent somites above and below each future vertebra allowing the spinal nerves to leave the spinal cord between adjacent vertebrae.

31
Q

How many vertebrae are in the vertebral column?

A

33 including the five that are fused to form the sacrum

32
Q

How many cervical vertebrae are there?

A

7

33
Q

How many thoracic vertebrae are there?

A

12

34
Q

How many lumbar vertebrae are there?

A

5

35
Q

What does the costal process result from?

A

The ventrolateral outgrowth of the caudal, denser half of a sclerotome.

36
Q

What does the costal process form in the cervical region?

A

The anterior and lateral boundary of the foramen transversarium.

37
Q

What does the costal process form in the thoracic region?

A

The ribs

38
Q

What does the costal process form in the lumbar region?

A

They fuse with the transverse processes

39
Q

What does the costal process form in the sacral region?

A

They unite to form the anterior portion of the ala of the sacrum.

40
Q

When does the development of cartilage and bone begin?

A

At the end of the 4th week of development

41
Q

What is the first step in bone formation?

A

The sclerotome cells form condensations of mesenchymal cells that form bone models.

42
Q

After the condensation of mesenchyme what two paths can be took?

A

1) Mesenchyme can be differentiated directly into bone

2) Mesenchyme can be differentiated into a cartilage model

43
Q

Mesenchyme that is differentiated directly into bone is said to what kind of bone formation?

A

Intramembranous Bone Formation

44
Q

Mesenchyme that is differentiated into a cartilage model first is said to what kind of bone formation?

A

Intercartilaginous Bone Formation

45
Q

Which type of bones develop via Intramembranous Bone Formation?

A

Flat bones

46
Q

Which type of bones develop via Intercartilaginous Bone Formation?

A

Long Bones and Bones of the Limbs

47
Q

Briefly describe the steps of bone formation

A

1) Mesenchyme migrates and condenses
2) Mesenchyme arises from mesoderm or neural crest
3) Cartilaginous model of the bone is formed
4) Primary center of ossification appears around 8 weeks

  • One in each of the neural arches

Q

What causes hemivertebra?

A

Failure of one of the chondrofication centers to appear and subsequent failure of half of the vertebra to form

A

A

The 5th lumbar is fused with the sacrum

A

Hypermobility of L4
